ArcPublisher 10 pmf backward compatibility

AndrewKuether

Will the Publisher extension create pmf files compatible with any earlier versions of ArcReader?

I'm having some of the same issues, but mine stem from trying to publish a 10.1 map to be able to be read by 10.0 arcreader...

My boss suggested to "Save a Copy" of the 10.x MXD in the needed version (you can go as far back as 8.3 when saving). Then open that MXD you just created. Try publishing it again. I don't know if this works yet, as our EMC hasn't gotten back to me yet, but ideally it should because you have a 10.0 mxd... I'll let you know if I figure anything out...

Hi, this unfortunately does not work. You can save a copy in a different version but it will still publish it with the version you currently have. Say you have v10, your map will be published as a pmf v10.

Also, if you upgrade your ArcMap to 10.1, you will have problems using arcreader 10. THis is very annyoing...
I don't feel like upgrading my ArcMap anymore.

Saving a copy as 10.0 and publishing it will not work. In our office I am the only one on 10.1, everyone else being on 10.0. But since publisher is a floating license if I need to update any of our ArcReaders I do it on another computer.

Very frustrating. Publisher license is very expensive and I was expecting it would have an option for publishing a map in different versions "publish v9.3, publish v10" etc

I hope ESRI find a solution for this soon.

Reader is free, just upgrade to ArcReader 10.

I just got off the phone with tech support and they say there is no backward compatability at this time, but they are going to see if there is a workflow that can be used to achieve this effect.
